Explanation:

Mohs scale is a scale that represents hardness of different minerals in increasing order from bottom to top.

So, according to Mohs scale hardness of  given minerals is rated as follows.

Apaptite is at number 5.

Calcite is at number 3.

Corundum is at number 9.

Feldspar is at number 6.

Talc is at number 1.

Therefore, given minerals in order of decreasing hardness are listed as follows.

        Corundum > Feldspar > Apaptite > Calcite > Talc

What occurs in dissociation
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:- B. Solvent molecules surround solute ions.

Explanations:- When an ionic solute that has positive and negative ions is dissolved in a solvent like water then the solute ions are surrounded by the water molecules in a way so that the highly electron negative oxygen atom of water is towards the positively charged ion of the solute and less electron negative which is hydrogen atom that has partial positive charge, surrounds the negatively charged ion of the solute.

Due to these forces made by the solvent molecules, the solute is broken into the ions and get dissolved in solvent.
